The Magpul SGA Shotgun stock is an aftermarket stock available for the Remington 870 and (separately) the Mossberg 500/590/590A1. It features: An ergonomic grip An adjustable spacer system that give flexibility on length of pull (12.5″ – 14.5″) A decently squishy buttpad Built in 1.25″ sling loops on both sides For accessories, there’s a […]

So far, this is just an initial review. This particular Valtro PM-5 is second-hand and I haven’t used it enough to give it a long term reliability report. The shotgun has some allure for 3 gun competition in Canada because it’s magazine-fed and uses large, 7 round magazines. If you fumble with reloading a tube with shotshells, […]

The Remington 1100 is an older, gas-operated, semi-automatic shotgun. Even though the design is a bit outdated, it’s still in use today and there are TONS of used ones out there. Produced since 1963, the 1100 is well known for helping to reduce recoil due to its gas-operated action, and for its reliability. . .most […]

There are a bajillion reviews out there on the UTAS UTS-15, but few on the Hunting variant as used for hunting. I’m going to ONLY focus on using this shotgun for hunting as I think there are a ton of great reviews out there on this shotgun and I’d be wasting your time repeating general information here. […]

I want to make this review real quick: this is an inexpensive, very packable shotgun of limited, unique, uses. This is not a general application shotgun for deer, grouse, goose, etc. It’s also not a premium shotgun: fit and finish are on-par with a shotgun that I’d pay $100-$150 for, but locking surfaces are strong […]

I’ll make this review quick, because these shotguns aren’t in fantastic supply right now and they’re not exactly new on store shelves. This shotgun is a Boito 410 Side by Side (SxS). I believe it was about $400 when purchased new and features 26″ barrels, double triggers, and extractors. It’s a bit heavy for a […]

How about a straight video review? This is a Stoeger Uplander side-by-side 12 gauge shotgun featuring: Side by side double barrel 12 gauge capable of up to 3″ shells Extractors Screw in choke tubes Double triggers Priced at around $475-$500 in Canada.

I bought a used 870 that I wanted to tacti-cool for 3-gun competition, so I thought I’d put together an epic article on tactical shotgun accessories in Canada. Some people appreciate the ease of use, pointability, extra shells, and looks that tactical accessories provide. Like always, prices and availability will change and I’m still adding […]

When I asked fellow gun enthusiastic friends to name the first shotgun that came to mind, the majority responded with “Remington 870”. Not one mentioned the Remington M887 NitroMag. This made me wonder if anyone had even heard of this boom stick before or if they just kept it in the “piece of crap” section […]
